Afternoon gang.

Yesterday I never mentioned, the wife's Impala has some brake issues. Some I knew and was planning for, one was a new surprise. It needs new pads and rotors and because of how the rear rotors look, I want to rebuild the rear calipers. While out with the Impala, it blew a brake line!! Looks like it should be an easy line (I can't see where it's leaking, but based where it's making a mess, it has to be the line for the front passenger side brake). Tonight I plan to pull the rear calipers off and see how messed up they are.

Fun times
Just have to get it ready before winter!!

Hi `Chris,
WoW `evening already Where has this day gone ? I hope that you are feeling all better after your dental work. Wish you a good rest tonight.
I don't consider it evening until the sun goes down ? You must start your eve earlier...

Wish you & member's a great `eve (a good meal & a good night's recharge > rest) EnJoy your Now (it's the present of `life)




Evening is the period in which the daylight is
decreasing, between the late afternoon and night, around the time when dinner is
taken. Though the term is subjective, evening is typically understood to begin
just before twilight, sunset, during the close of the standard business day, 5
pm – and extend until night – typically astronomical sunset, 9
pm.

I was thinking Oh `no `space...U know what happens when U do that >
=====================
Morning 5.00am-11.59am
Afternoon 12.00noon- 5.00pm
Evening 5.01pm- 10.00pm
Night 10.01pm- 4.59am

What do you think ?

Evening all, gps got us quite lot coming back from dinner tonight. We went with friends of ours to visit their son over at Alfred state college and on our way back our gps took us through Sugar Hill state forest and the roads were all dirt and we were in bum(you know) no where. Had to turn around on one roads because it was too much like a trail and all we had was a chevy hhr. Was interesting none the less, don't think it was the fastest route, stupid gps lol.

This weekend i'm doing 2 car show, one at the Tioga Downs casino, and then one upstate further in Boonville, NY. Devin and Amanda are also going to do these two shows as well, so hopefully it'll be a fun weekend.

Good evening everyone

Was having an excellent day today out cruising the countryside and visiting clients, (have I mentioned I love my job some days ) but the I was the furthest away from home I could have been in my geo area, and the check engine light came on the car was driving absolutely perfect all day, no issues whatsoever and to be honest it floored me when it happened. So after seeing my last client I found a spot to park and give the motor a quick look see, just to see if I could notice anything that was obvious. Well............my CAI had come off again at the throttle body this is twice now since installing, and yes I have tightened it to the point where it should not have come off, I used a ratchet and socket, but I put it back together and drove home. Again the entire ride home it was perfect, drove just like new. Then I get home for about 20 minutes and take my daughter to the dentist and after getting out of the dentist, pulled up to the stop light and the car died. Started back up and drove along, but major hesitation off the start. So I get home, thankfully only about a 4 minute drive with traffic lights, and lift the hood up and the CAI had come off again at the Throttle body. I can't seem to win lately with the little demons in my car lol, but what can you do. It gives me a chance to get all the little stuff worked out before the winter months, so I am looking at all this as a positive experience.

Hope everyone has a great tomorrow.

Ken
